farmers with those
who need food!

10% Campaign
|
The 10% Campaign is a project of the Center For Environmental Farming Systems (CEFS). The campaign encourages you to spend 10% of your existing food dollars to support North Carolina food producers, businesses and communities. Why 10%? In North Carolina, we spend $35 billion on food every year. If we spend 10% of our food dollars on local product, we can infuse over $3.5 billion into the local economy. As avid supporters of the Durham Farmers' Market, you already know the many advantages to shopping locally. So, why join the campaign? It will re-affirm your commitment to shopping locally and it sends a strong message to policy makers about the importance of local foods! For more information visit: www.nc10percent.com |

The Wednesday Market has been back in action for 1 month now, and we thought it was time we properly introduce you to our new mid-week vendors. We are very excited to welcome three new businesses to Wednesday afternoons at the market this season!
1. Huntington Provision Co. crafts scratch made nut butters, granola & other artisanal foods featuring all-natural, locally-sourced ingredients.
2. Homebucha is a grassroots kombucha company based in Durham using high quality organic ingredients and taste-centric fermentation methods.
3. Also joining us at the Saturday market this season, Phoenix Farm grows 70+ varieties of fruits, vegetables, and herbs in Snow Camp, NC.
Be sure to visit our new vendors' booths and try their wonderful products and produce!
See you tomorrow!

Chapel Hill Creamery
We made a lot of our Dairyland Farmers Cheese and will offer it at a reduced price this Wednesday. It's a fresh, slightly tart cheese, popular with kids of all ages. It's good for snacking, salads, or melting. Use it in tacos, our Market Salad recipe, in scrambled eggs, or with hot pepper jelly with crackers. It highlights our fresh Jersey cows" milk.
Our Pheta is aged in a salt brine and is saltier than the Farmers cheese. Add it to salads, greens, pasta, or Tabouli. Our Carolina Moon is similar to a Brie, and is rich and creamy with a lot of flavor, and is ready to serve.
Sausage comes from our whey fed pigs and is made with the hams for a meaty taste. Choose from sage/maple breakfast; mild country breakfast, and Chorizo. Our Chorizo is hot with a flavorful mix of Mexican spices. Come pick up one of our recipes like the Chorizo tacos and taste a sample of our cheese.
